Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of tumor necrosis factor recep-tor associated factor 6(TRAF6)in human esophageal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 72 patients with esopha-geal cancer were collected.Immunohistochemistry method was used to determine TRAF6 expression in esophageal carcinoma and its adjacent normal tissue,and its relationship with clinical pathological features was explored.Results The TRAF6 positive expression rate in esophageal cancer tissue was 66.13%,which was significantly higher than that of normal tissue (13.89%),the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(χ2 =56.850,P <0.01).And TRAF6 expression level was significantly correlated with esophageal cancer clinical staging,lymph node metastasis(χ2 =6.818,4.428,all P <0.05),but TRAF6 expression was not correlated with age,sex,tumor differenti-ation.Conclusion The expression level of TRAF6 in esophageal carcinoma was significantly increased,and there was a significant correlation between the TRAF6 expression level and clinical pathological characteristics.
